Chickstick Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 sorry for making a few spelling mistakes. what's the big deal? even books have spelling mistakes so what. If a story has a lot of spelling mistakes in it, nobody will bother to read it. Trust me, proper spelling- in which I mean that the reader can actually follow the plot instead of trying to work out what has been written- helps tremendously, and also makes you, the writer, seem more intelligent, if you get what I mean. You should always check your writing for any spelling and punctuation mistakes. True, some may escape your notice, but others- Eminence in particular springs to mind- will notice and give you advice on how to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vercetti21 Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 It's called constructive criticism, and you need to be able to take it if you want to be a good writer. Don't take everything people say to heart. We're trying to help you improve and you get all defensive. Secondly, there's nothing wrong with the way Eminence criticizes people's work. He's just an honest reviewer, something this forum needs more of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poikly Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 there's nothing wrong with the way Eminence criticizes people's work. 90% of the time anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
